An exploration of redemption through the humanity assumed by the Lord, arguing the Christian dispensation ends with the New Church doctrine that salvation uses the Lord’s Divine Life as the medium rather than suffering alone. It contrasts general Christian atonement with Swedenborgian views on Jesus as perfect medium and discusses related biblical phrases and a historical duel in Cohoes, New York, plus local political nominations in Wiy, Illinois.
